GROW YOUR OWN GARDEN SERIES

Workshop 1: Planning Your Own Garden

Learn spacing and light requirements for different crops, when they should be planted outside and started inside. We will work through a simple raised bed planting guideline. We will also review which crops grow best by directly sowing seeds outside and which work best with seedlings.

If you want to have organically grown seedlings for your garden, you can buy them directly from us or you can start your own at our Seed Starting Class. We will provide you with the soil, trays, domes, and skills to start your own seedlings. You will be able to choose from the seeds we provide or use your own. Class includes 50 soil blocks, with a tray, clear plastic dome, and seeds.

Workshop 3: Planting & Weeding Your Garden

This class is hands on, so plan to get dirty. We will show you to prepare your soil, let you try simple tools that make gardening and weeding easier, and have you plant several crops so you k now what to do with your own. We will also show you how you can get a jump on the growing season.
